Lotus Sunflower Seeds Snowskin Mooncake (2021) ~ 莲蓉葵花籽冰皮月饼

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I was contemplating the choice of fruit juice to make the snow skin with this mooncake mould.  As this mould resembles a money bag  (钱袋) used in ancient China long, long ago, it should be something yellowish to represent gold. I finally settled for carrot juice because of its vibrant colour. The filling is reduced white lotus paste with lightly toasted sunflower seeds. These snowies are soft, light, refreshing and they served as a delicious chilled dessert. I kept them in an airtight container in the fridge and they stayed soft and delectable even on the fifth day, not dried and no cracks.
